1864 RICHMOND RIFLED MUSKET.

1864 RICHMOND RIFLED MUSKET. SN NSN. Cal. 58. This is what we consider to be the standard late production 1864 Richmond rifled musket. Markings here are the most typically noted on 1864s. Nice 1864s, where barrel are usually deeply stamped, as they are here. The “VP” proof was changed from earlier models, like is seen here where the “VP” is deep and there is no break in the “P”. On all other Richmonds prior to this standard or late-production 1864, a broken “P” is generally noted. This gun shows tremendous stress marks in the metal on bbl, trigger guard, hammer, and even in the rear sight. This gun appears orig and complete in every regard. This gun must have been captured or made late in the war and saw little use, because there is little pitting from powder at breech, and the bore rifling is very good. You are bidding on a beautiful 1864-dated Richmond rifled musket that is orig and complete in every regard, really showing the last-ditch manufacture of the Confederacy, with an orig Confederate sling and accompanying proper bayonet. CONDITION: Metal surfaces are cleaned and are gray/bright. Markings on bbl and lock are very good. Brass nosecap and buttplate are smooth and patinaed with scattered scratches. Stock is sound and solid with scattered dings and scratches. In front of comb of stock, there is a small, cross-hatched, carved area. 4-31246 JS158 (10,000-15,000)
